Rossignol Soft Boot

Well, my damn feet are too big for my old Salomon Performa 5.0 boots, so it's time to get new ones. I get some really bad shin bang and it is a pain in the ass so I was checkin' out the soft boot selection. Most of my skiing is in the park, i can only ski powder over vacation because there is no powder here. are these boots pretty good for my conditions, because I know that the Rossignol team used these all last year. Any opinions from people that have actually used this boot would be great!

i tried them on.. the soft 3's not the soft 1's. The soft 3's are amazing, probably the nicest boots i've ever tried on. Plus, they have a special blow dryer thingy so the boot moulds to your foot.

dont even ask about boots here, go to a good bootfitter and ask him tell him what your gonna be skiing, everyones feet are different, so its good for some, bad for others, and soft1's are the sstiffest ,good cause they arent noodles

i can't go to a professional bootfitter though, because i live in wisconsin and the closest ski resort to me is 2.5 hours away and there aren't any bootfitters there... do they offer a Rossignol soft boot big enough for my feet? I wear a size 12.5 shoe.

where in WI are you? I can tell you some good shops that could help you fit a boot well.

I wear a 15 shoe and fit a 30.5 ski boot. Just measure your bare foot in CM - that's your ski boot size. I'm 99.999% positive you can fit a Soft1

I Checked out the Rossignol Enduro at a show this year. Seems to a very competent boot and extremely comfortable, but very pricey...
